Log Analytics ingestion in East US region has a recent ingestion latency issue with a maximum ingestion latency of 4 hours. Root cause has been isolated to a service scale issue which was impacting Log Analytics ingestion. As a result of this ingestion latency customers may experience alerts not behaving in the expected manner due to missing data. To address this issue we have scaled the service appropriately. Some customers will experience incomplete or delayed ingestion until full mitigation which we estimate to be in approximately 3 hours.
